Extra-Curricular Opportunities
As part of our commitment to the personal development of our pupils, we are excited to offer a range of extra-curricular activities both in school hours and after school. Private music lessons are also offered.
This year, Sports & Music Clubs, led by Mr Morant, Mrs Astle, Mr Caldwell and Mr Higgins, will run for the whole of the Autumn Term.
Clubs run by teaching staff will run for half-term blocks:
Autumn Term A: Clubs will run from Monday 11th September – Friday 13thOctober.
Autumn Term B: Clubs will run from Monday 23rd October – Friday 15th December. There will be no clubs in the last week of term – WB. 18th December.
Lunchtime clubs do not need to be booked and are free of charge. However, if you would like your child to participate in an after-school club during any part of the Autumn Term, then you will need to book a place via School Money no later than Thursday 7th September please. The cost for each after-school club is £4.50. (Child-care vouchers cannot be used for payment unfortunately).
If, for any reason, your child will not be attending an after-school session, parents must inform the school office please so that we don’t have to chase an absence – for safeguarding reasons a register will always be taken.
After-school clubs will start at the end of the school day. Pupils should be collected from the tarmac area at the front of the school at 4.15 pm.
